It was small, but nn In the beg ts walls grew a feeling of warmth and closeness i hin wit . Each student was an in- imable size inest ich was of wh each of the faculty was a friend as well as an ividual; d is school has grown as the feeling of friend- isor. Th adv ip and respect has spread to each who has tasted of sh ife at Beechwood. We, who have grown to love the l f our school, would like to give to all who spirit O have made Beechwood what it is, our THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES. DEDICATION In dedicating the 1959 BEECHWOOD, we, the members of the Senior Class, looked back four years to the beginning of our high school careers. At that time we were looking to our teachers for education, guidance and social adjustment. We feel that one particular teacher has made this three-fold con- tribution and has rapidly gained the respect of the entire stu- dent body. To our “once” homeroom teacher, friend and our enthusiastic basketball coach, Mr. Harold Williams, we dedicate the 1959 BEECHWOOD. BOARD OF EDUCATION CHARLES FEUSS, President CLIFFORD HOMAN G. W.

The awards are an incentive to the departing seniors and also the students who will follow them. It is only right that we dedicate a page to the occasion that has a special signifi- cance to the entire student body. This is “B” Day.
